Hi Kimberly,
Using fondant is a great way to make cakes look professional and impressive, but it can be tough to handle! I've used several store-bought fondants before, but they usually don't taste too good! You may be disappointed to find your expensive fondant left on the side of plates like orange peels. Homemade fondants are easy and fun to make and once you get the hang of it, you can be making cakes like a pro in no time! Making homemade fondant is very inexpensive, and it tastes 100 times better than store-bought! Check out my article at: http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/5766144/how_to_make_easy_a....

Hi Ali, when you make a lot of cakes, it becomes too difficult to make your own fondant for each one. There are, indeed, a number of good tasting store-bought fondants out there. Even Wilton has improved tremendously. (It just requires you add your own flavoring oil).
